Well, it seems you do have a card or two to play here, since you haven't paid them anything. Certainly, your negotiating position is made stronger with no money having exchanged hands. Not too bright on their part, asking for no money to continue, but what do you care now.

I think consulting your contract or what you have for written documentation is crucial and then I'm kinda curious what you think the value of the car is as it sits? It's complete now correct? The reason I ask is, if the whole thing blows up, one of your "end game" choices (negotiating strategy) could be "Then keep it." While I know no one wants that to happen, I'm sure the shop doesn't either.
